RUSSIA'S RESTLESS ARMY
THE CzAR HAS NOT SENT ANY
NOTE TO THE POWERS.

No Further Changes in the Position of
Troops Expected During the Present
Winter-No Communications on the
Bulgarian Situation Exchanged by
Russia and Austria.
ST. PETERSBURG, Dec 22--It is semi
officially announced that Russia has not in
formed the powers that the movement of
Russian troops in Poland have ceased 1t
Is a fact, however, that no further displace-
ment Of troops is expected during the pres
ent winter. Russian diplomats seriously
expect some action on the part of Germany,
Austria and Italy to induce Prince Ferdi-
nand to withdraw from Bulgaria.
SERvIAN NEUTRALITY.
VIENNA, Dec 22.-The Nelte Erie Presse
says that King Milan of Servia, replying to
an address of congratulation presented to
him by the Chamber of Deputies, said the
present moment was fraught with danger TO
Europe II a conflict between Germanic
and Slav ideas should ever occur, he said
Servia should not participate, but should
remain spectator. 1t would be impossi-
BILE to Germanize Servian individuality,
but it might be Slavicized. Then it would
disappear The Obrenovitch family This
family live only for the Servian idea. "My
DESIRE" he continued, sis to follow my
family traditions, which are the secret OF
my foreign policy"
NO COMMUNICATIONS EXCHANGED.
1t is semi-officially stated that no COM
munications whatever have been exchanged
by the Austrian and Russian governments
concerning the present situation in Bulgaria,
nor has Russia made any ntimation regard
ing the movements of her troops on the
frontier. 1t is considered still possible to
arrange for the resignation of Prince
Ferdinand, and for the subsequent appoint
ment of regent in Bulgaria who will be
agreeable to Russia.
The Warsaw correspondent of the Poltt-
zeal Correspondence, who was the first to
announce the military movements in Russia
repeats his former statements and gives
precise details regarding the various bodies
of troops which have arrived in the Lublin
district since autumn. If his statements are
correct the HlUdLide Russe'S version of
movements was Intentionally misleading.

BERLIN, Dec 22-Military circles here

from Moscow state that a number of

A Months Paw for EMPLOYEES.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-In the House to-
day Mr.. Adams, of Illinois, offered reso-
luton for the payment of a months salary
to the House employees who were on the
rolls Dec. 5, but who have since been dis
charged, or who may be discharged prior to
Jan. l. This is similar in substance to the
joint resolution passed some days since, ex-
cept that under the joint resolution the pay
ment must be made from the Treasury,
while under the pending resolution the
payment is made from the contingent fund
of the Housed
In speaking to the resolution, Mr.. Her
bert, of Alabama, remarked upon the action
of certain Senators in criticising the House
for passing the joint resolution-an action
which he thought was uncalled for, in view
of the fact that the Senators voted them
selves each clerk and insisted upon paying
their employees 25 per cent more than was
received by the employees of the House.
Mr.. Bland moved to refer the resolution
TO the Committee on Accounts. This was
agreed TO by vote of 93 yeas to II nays.

HOUSE COMMITTEES.
Speaker Carlisle Wiyhholds the Names
of the Tariff Committee.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22,-Acting on advice
he received this morning Speaker Carlisle
did not announce the Committee on Ways
and Means. His advisers pointed out to
him that the announcement Of that or any
other important committee would simply
intensity the efforts of considerable mum
Der of members to get the best places left.
Most members are modest and considerate,
but some are so importunate for good com
mittee appointments as to be offensive. So
the Speaker, to save himself from further
importuning delayed his announcement.
The Ways and Means Committee however,
stands just as it was given in these dis
patches last night. The Speaker will de-
vote most of his time during the recess to
the composition of the other committees.
They will all be ready to be announced Jan.
4, when Congress convenes again.
